If you want the bindings reviewed, then you need to send them to the
DT list. CC'ing me is pointless, I get CC'ed too many things to read.

The consumer and producer binding should be a single patch. One is not
useful without the other.

There is also a patch series from Maxime Ripard that's addressing the
same general area. See "dt-bindings: Add a dma-parent property". We
don't need multiple ways to address describing the device to memory
paths, so you all had better work out a common solution.
